[PATCH v3 0/5] perf-probe: Improve probing on versioned symbols

From: Masami Hiramatsu
Date: Fri Dec 08 2017 - 11:26:47 EST


Hi,

Here is the 3rd version of the series for probing on
versioned symbols in libraries. This includes 5 patches
to fix the issues discussed on perf-users ML
(https://www.spinics.net/lists/linux-perf-users/msg04637.html)

The first version (and detail note) is here;
https://lkml.org/lkml/2017/12/5/1124

Here is the updates;

[1/5] Update error message. Arnaldo, I dropped the latter
half from error message because it doesn't try to write
the name to the kprobe_events interface.
[4/5] Fix 2 bugs (Thanks Thomas-Mich Richter!)
[5/5] Update according to previous patch.

Thank you,
---
